“Federal Election Commission records show Stein paid $100,000 in July to a consulting outfit that has worked with Republican campaigns, as well as Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s independent presidential bid. The firm, Accelevate, is operated by Trent Pool. The Intercept reported that he appeared to be part of the mob that breached the grounds of the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6., 2021. The Journal hasn’t independently verified the reporting.”

    On behalf of your daughter who’s marriage may be under threat because of the Respect for Marriage act from Democrats she may be no better off then before 2012 depending where she lives. What protections have Dems provided for your son other than lip service in the face of republicans passing over 500 anti-trans bills the last several years? The DNC claims to have their backs while denying them affordable housing, livable wages, access to affordable health and mental care. Nothing but lip service from them.

    The first 2 months of US bombs in Gaza had the same environmental impact as burning 150k tons of coal. That war has been going on for nearly 12 months. Out of one side of their mouth they talk about mitigating environmental damage. But their actions tell a different story.

      You don’t get to speak on behalf of my daughter or my son when you’re working as hard as you possibly can to elect the Republicans who want to destroy their futures.

          The game you’re playing: “Democrats are imperfect! They haven’t done everything possible to protect your kids! Please pay no attention to the fact that they’ve been hamstrung by the filibuster in the Senate for decades, and a Supreme Court that’s been stacked due to the electoral college giving Republicans two popular-vote losers as president in the span of 16 years. Ignore all that and fight like hell to keep Democrats out of office!”

          You’re fucking transparent, and again, someone fighting to get Republicans elected doesn’t get to speak on behalf of my children.

        If SCOTUS strikes down Obergefell or Loving it allows states to refuse licenses to same sex and/or interracial couples.

            Then the entire argument has nothing to do with democrats and you “people” are giving Dems, who are mostly anti gay marriage, way, way too much credit.

              Day old account and already attacking Dems and defending Stein? Wouldn’t be at all surprising if this is a sockpuppet. Definitely not here in good faith.

                Or surprised to see this right wing nonsense outside of reddit and facebook. It’s genuinely amazing that you people are smart enough to leave the mainstream internet.
